I'm a NYS resident hoping to become an academic physician, interested in orthopedics. I really value academics and research opportunities. Diversity is big as well. My goal as of right now is to match back into NYC. Tuition cost is not necessarily a factor, but I would appreciate any votes, feedback, or suggestions!
SUNY Upstate

Temple University
Pros:
- Located in a large city
- Higher match rates for both ortho and NYC placements
- Slightly more access to research opportunities in the areas I want to study
- Better at producing academic physicians
- More expensive tuition
- Farther from family
- Not the greatest area of the city, but this doesn't really bother me
